There are some legitimate threads in there to catch spammers and such but most of it is filled with cry-babies. I can't imagine taking things so personally that I'd go in there to whine about it.

I actively visit all three "Forum Issues" forums. Interesting threads plus useful info.

Some of it is issues with mods in general, some of it is spammer or troll reporting, or other bad behavior by users. There is a bit of whining going on there, but not as much as you might expect.

Usually check it once a month or so. Olds is fun to watch in action there too.

a bunch of pot stirrers in there. Not that I totally disagree with some of the points they bring up, but it's just a damn forum. Not worth the hassle IMO as no one is forcing anyone to stay.

The power of his high is too strong. Overcome it, he will not.

It almost always involves the same 10 people or so all the time too. It's like they created a forum just to have a convenient place to update us on the weekly soap opera.

It almost always involves the same end result too... "If you don't like it contact Derek Wilson" (and he will do nothing), and then... the thread is locked.

and then dered deletes the message and everything continues on as it was. with no solution thought of or given.

BUT every blue moon you get a response from Derek! usually 2-3 weeks after the event!

I usually see a lot of P&N issues, mostly coming from conservatives. Those guys should have bigger balls, but they don't.
